The Strike Gold

@mclaincausey I can't wait to see your 5105's when they get to the level your 3105's are at. Get to work and post some pics! A couple more weeks left of HWDC2 and then I'll be starting on mine.
What sucks about that is that I'm entering IH-634SII, so they won't get much wear. I think they'll become my "sneaker jeans"

Thanks; it's a weird denim. slubby blisters horizontally, streaks vertically, and then a grainy element. The twill is crooked too. During HWDC, the IH-634SII will be my "boot jeans" but I'll wear these any other time I'm wearing jeans. I guess I have to retire my soft, beloved 3105s once the competition spools up

Right! Mine are still furry in areas of less wear, the thighs have shed most of theirs. The Evo on these promises to be special

51xx denim next to faded 21oz
On its own
So much texture in this denim. Super irregular and rough, but some how also soft
-
Glad they fit. Weird ass rug denim right?
-
Def weird dude. Ill post some fit pics when i can

Here's a hair shot from a while back of the 51XX

These 5105 are evolving fast on just a few wears. You can see the texture at a distance now:

Nice! Can't wait to see how they develop. I have my own of course, but since I can only wear jeans two days per week, I will be watching yours for inspiration.

Lookin good MCL!
Quick fit pics of my 5109's

Those look great, what'd you do for a soak?
-
Piss warm for 30mins then held the knees out of the water with a stick and did hot for another 20

Perfect for you too.
This denim just feels good IMO, I love the texture and stretchiness of the weave. A cliche, but they remind me of sweatpants. They're so textural that you get a lot of wear quickly and a lot of visible horizontal and vertical texture and color variation.
